Hard disk drive filler

Abstract

A hard disk drive filler (HDD filler) detachably installed in a case is disclosed. The HDD filler has a frame body, a guiding device, and a gravitational sliding device, wherein the frame body defines a bottom surface and a top surface corresponding to the bottom surface. The guiding device is situated on the frame body and combines with the gravitational sliding device. The gravitational sliding device is confined and guided by the guiding device, such that the gravitational sliding device can slide along a certain direction for staying within or exposing at least a part of the gravitational sliding device to the frame body due to gravity. If the frame body is installed in the case while the bottom surface is upward, the gravitational sliding device slides and is guided by the guiding device to be partly exposed to the frame body to stop the installation.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A hard disk drive filler detachably installed in a case, the hard disk drive filler comprising:
 a frame body defining a bottom surface and a top surface corresponding to the bottom surface;   a guiding device situated on the frame body; and   a gravitational sliding device combined with the guiding device and confined and guided by the guiding device such that the gravitational sliding device can slide along a direction to stay within the frame body or expose at least a part of it to the frame body due to gravity;   whereby, if the hard disk drive filler is installed in the case while the bottom surface is upward, the gravitational sliding device slides due to gravity and is guided by the guiding device to be partly exposed to the frame body and interferes with the case to block the frame body from entering the case.   
     
     
         2 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the hard disk drive filler further comprises a hole, wherein the hole is situated on the top surface, and the hole is situated on a moving path of the gravitational sliding device for allowing a part of the gravitational sliding device to slide out of the frame body via the hole. 
     
     
         3 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein if the top surface of the hard disk drive filler is upward, the gravitational sliding device slides reversely into the frame body, guided by the guiding device, such that the gravitational sliding device stays completely within the frame body. 
     
     
         4 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the guiding device of the hard disk drive filler comprises a first guiding device and a second guiding device; the first guiding device, the second guiding device, and the hole are situated on a same axis of the moving path of the gravitational sliding device. 
     
     
         5 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the gravitational sliding device further comprises a hollow area for being movably connected to the guiding device. 
     
     
         6 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein if the bottom surface of the hard disk drive filler is upward, the gravitational sliding device slides out of the frame body due to gravity and the guiding of the guiding device and stops sliding when a first end of the hollow area interferes with the guiding device and the gravitational sliding device is partly exposed to the frame body. 
     
     
         7 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein if the top surface of the hard disk drive filler is upward, the gravitational sliding device slides due to gravity and the guiding of the guiding device and stops sliding when a second end of the hollow area interferes with the guiding device. 
     
     
         8 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the guiding device is a dowel pin. 
     
     
         9 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the guiding device is an L-shaped stop. 
     
     
         10 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the guiding device comprises two L-shaped stops. 
     
     
         11 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the gravitational sliding device is a slice body which comprises a blocking wall; if the bottom surface of the hard disk drive filler is upward, the slice body is guided by the L-shaped stop and slides due to gravity until the blocking wall interferes with the L-shaped stop to stop the installation. 
     
     
         12 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the L-shaped stop is formed integrally from the frame body. 
     
     
         13 . The hard disk drive filler as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the top surface can be an open space, and the hole is the open space.
